Hurry and tow cars from illegally parked spots in apartment complexes nearby. It serves as staging area till you can get them all towed to the secured lot. Meanwhile car owner has already been towed and has no idea his car is 2 blocks away at Walmart. This is some SERIOUSLY fricked up business practice and not sure why they were just slapped on the wrist.

They used to use the Circle K on B-side for staging. I, along with a few of my friends, got our cars out for free for almost a year. They can't tell you not to get your own car if it isn't in their possession.

Right. That's the key is knowing where they are staging and you might get your shite back for free. Good stuff. They can only stop you if it's hooked up or in their lot.

I was banned at the time and had LSUPHILLY72 post my case for me here just for feedback.

The night of Spanish Town Ball I was at BWW northgate with some friends. Got drunk and wanted to go downtown about 11pm. I figured I was drinking and eating at BWW the entire time surely they wouldn't mind my leaving a car overnight, right? Wrong. Was pretty shitty practice of a place that essentially say's, "Hey come drink alcohol and watch the big UFC fights here but you better take your car when you leave." Boo Riverside and their clients who pay them.

However, the current downtown issue is not a problem for me. Drive up one floor and park. Signs are visible now.
